"Why did it take so long to call? I didn't expect you to be quite caring." As soon as Chu Chengmu opened the car door, a voice with a slightly nasal sound came over. Looking up, he found Timo.

The fat little man with soft fur had betrayed the revolution, lying on Sheng Yiran's lap with his belly turned over and having fun.

"There are a lot of things to explain. I originally had my own arrangements today, but I bumped into you unexpectedly."

Chu Chengmu got into the back seat of the car and took a look at Sheng Yuran, who was enduring the pain and gently scratching Teemo's stomach with her nails. In just a short while, the woman had simply tidied up her appearance.

, although the appearance still looks a bit embarrassed, it has finally regained some of its usual demeanor.

"This dog should be a cross between Bernese Mountain and other dogs. I see that you are usually very picky, and I thought you would prefer pedigree dogs." Sheng Zhenran reached out and grabbed Teemo's ears and fiddled with them.

It clicked its head, and under its lowered eyelids, there was a tenderness that Chu Chengmu had never seen before.

"Do you still know this? This dog's mother is Su Mu. One time my friends and I happened to see its mother being hit by a car and killed by a car at the school gate. When I picked it up, it hadn't opened its eyes yet. Which hospital should I go to?"

Chu Chengmu raised his hand and looked at his watch, and suddenly remembered that he had promised Qiu Jinge to go to her place for dinner today, and it seemed that he was going to break his promise again.

Taking out his mobile phone, Chu Chengmu sent a text message to Qiu Jinge, telling her that he would not go over for lunch today. At the same time, he explained that it was because he had something urgent to deal with, not because he had something urgent to deal with.

Targeting her deliberately.

It's okay when I don't think about it. Now that I think about it, I still have to say hello. Chu Chengmu is not used to being such a bitch.

"Let's go to the southwest!" Sheng Zhenran looked up and looked out the window and said nonchalantly, then quickly focused his attention on Gouzi, smiled, and continued:

"Before I followed Chen Gonghua, I borrowed money to open a pet shop, probably around 1998, when I was only ten years old. In fact, I didn't like doing this, it was dirty and tiring, and at that time

Not many people have the concept of pet dogs, but I don’t care, I just want to get in touch with all kinds of dogs through this pet store.”

"Huh? You are really forward-looking. At that time, foreign dog breeds were not very popular in China, right?"

Chu Chengmu was a little surprised when he heard this and said, let alone 1998, even now, most pet shops are not so much caring for or fostering dogs, but rather selling dogs as their main business, and doing other part-time jobs.

The store environment is dark, humid, dirty and smelly.

"The price of looking ahead is to owe a lot of debt. In an era when people didn't have enough to eat, how many people were willing to spend money on dogs? However, there were still many breeds of dogs in Yuzhou at that time, including those that only grew in size after 2000.

There were many Labradors introduced in Yuzhou at that time."

Sheng Zhenran gently scratched the inside of Teemo's hind legs with her nails. Teemo also spread his four legs wider. It was obvious that such an action caused her pain, but she still had a smile on her face.

.

"This puppy has a typical Bernese-style head. This kind of dog is very considerate and can sense people's emotions. The only drawback is that its lifespan is too short. However, after being passed over, the lifespan will be extended a lot.

, your physical fitness will also be much better. No wonder you have little yellow hair, it turns out your mother is Su Mu!" As she spoke, Sheng Zhenran stretched out her hands and grabbed Timo's cheek, her tone was very gentle.

"Then why did I hear that Chen Gonghua was in..." Chu Chengmu looked up and looked out the window. At this time, the car had already driven back to Zhongsha District.

"You want to talk about me becoming a young lady? At that time, I owed a lot of debt, and I didn't want to be a douchebag. Later, someone told me that it would make money quickly, so I gritted my teeth and did it. Anyway, I was at that time

There is only one grandma left, and as long as no one tells her, I don’t really care about my body or anything else.”

"I just didn't expect that after training for a long time, I was spotted by Chen Gonghua the first time I came out, and then I was taken away by him. Later, he took me with him to train me for a long time, and he also taught me a lot of things.

, I slowly learned about self-respect and self-love, etc., but I don’t know the result..."

Sheng Zhenran is very frank about her past, and she has no intention of hiding it when talking about her past as a young lady.

"So, you were specially selected by Chen Gonghua to target someone at that time?" Chu Chengmu heard the subtext of Sheng Zhenran and asked.

"Well, at first I just had the appearance that someone liked. Chen Gonghua said that the first love between me and that person was almost exactly the same. Later I learned a lot of things, all in order to suit him, not what you think.

It’s not a skill, but serious knowledge, education, etc. That period was very difficult for me, who dropped out of high school, but it was also a rare and relaxing time.”

Sheng Zhenran looked at Chu Chengmu's eyes and explained that maybe she was determined to cooperate with Chu Chengmu, or she was planning to change her backer. At this time, she almost knew everything about Chu Chengmu's problems.

The words are endless.

"Then, what was the last thing Li Jiuge said in your ear?" Chu Chengmu hesitated for a moment, but finally asked.

Almost all the changes in Sheng Zhenran at this time originated from that sentence. Before Li Jiuge said those words, there was still a wildness in Sheng Zhenran's eyes that refused to admit defeat, but now, this wildness has almost disappeared.

, all that was left was calmness and the heartbreak in his eyes that had converged to the extreme.

Sheng Zhenran was stunned for a moment when she heard the words. She even stopped petting the dog with her hands. She turned sideways and looked at Chu Chengmu seriously, with a look of thinking flashing in her eyes. After a good time, she turned around and looked at Chu Chengmu seriously.

After a while, he said:

"You have observed carefully enough. That sentence is very simple, 'Mrs.

It was easy to follow the clues and find that person. Now that things have happened, I don’t want to cause any more complications, because there are too many involved and I can’t escape myself.”

When Chu Chengmu heard this, he suddenly felt that all the riddles had answers. Why did Li Jiuge not care about Chen Gonghua's attitude? Why did Sheng Zhenran suddenly lose all his anger? Why did she look for him casually?

With an excuse, she accepted the cooperation that she had always refused to accept. It turned out that she had been abandoned by everyone.

"Naked official? The term is coming soon?" Chu Chengmu asked softly.

When Sheng Zhenran heard the words, she looked at Chu Chengmu blankly. After a while, she pursed her lips vigorously, then nodded, and then big tears finally burst from her eyes.

out.

Chu Chengmu reached out and took out a few tissues from behind the backrest, handed them to Sheng Yeran, and then turned his head to one side.

This woman was so pitiful. She wandered around for several years, giving her youth to Chen Gonghua and her body to the man behind her. During this period, she served as a pair of gloves or a companion, and brought countless blessings to the two of them.

She didn't lose anything in terms of money, but in the end she ended up like this. I don't know whether I should call her innocent or stupid.

After an unknown amount of time, the arc-shaped main building of Southwest Hospital came into view, and Chu Chengmu heard a slight "thank you" from behind.

"No, now you and I are on the same boat for the time being. I have always been considerate of my own people. But I have one last question." Chu Chengmu looked back at Sheng Zhenran, who had regained control of his emotions.

said.

"You ask." Sheng Zhenran nodded.

"What is the relationship between Chen Gonghua and Li Jiuge?" Chu Chengmu looked at Sheng Yiran with burning eyes and asked softly.

When Sheng Zhenran heard this, she looked a little thoughtful, but she was also confused. After being silent for a while, she saw Gou Dongci driving into the gate of Southwest Hospital.

Back to God:

"I'm not sure, but what I know is that they didn't know each other at first. At least when Li Jiuge went to Yuzhou to look for investment, they didn't meet each other. I don't know who took the lead later.

The line brought the two of them together. As far as I know, so far, they should not have collaborated on any projects."

"Could it be the person behind you?" Chu Chengmu asked.

"No, if he is the one who pulled the strings, there is no reason to hide it from me, and there will always be some clues. Before his assets were transferred abroad, I was taking care of them. I still have this confidence. Give me this.

My feeling is that Chen Gonghua probably didn’t know in advance that Li Jiuge was connected with him, and judging from the last words Li Jiuge and I said today, Li Jiuge should have taken the route of being a wife, otherwise,

I wouldn’t have been caught off guard by being killed today.”

Sheng Zhenran thought about it again, shook his head, and rejected Chu Chengmu's judgment.

"My judgment is that besides the person behind me, there should be another person who connected Chen Gonghua and Li Jiuge. It's just that I don't usually come into contact with anything too core, so I may not be accurate."

Sheng Zhenran concluded.

"That's it! Then I won't check on the man behind you." Seeing Gou Dongci park the car, Chu Chengmu opened the car door, smiled at Sheng Zhenran before getting out of the car, and said.

"Thank you!" Sheng Zhenran replied softly.

Wife’s route? It’s interesting. No wonder Li Jiuge has to personally take care of even this little thing. I just don’t know whose relationship Li Jiuge is trying to get into through the so-called wife? Or who has he already got into?

Sheng Yiran was quickly settled. Before leaving the ward, Chu Chengmu couldn't help but look back at the woman lying quietly on the hospital bed, looking sideways at the tassel tree outside the window.

"Do you want me to inform Xu Jiping or Xu Jing?" Chu Chengmu took back his feet that were about to leave the ward, and stood in front of Sheng Yiran's bed again.
